Forums - Sales - Dissidia First week in USA

ShadowSoldier on 14 July 2009

You know I wonder what the landscape would be if the PSP wasn't so easy to hack?

Without Hackers Dissidia would do 500k in its first week

With Hackers 200-350k

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

I don't think it would be THAT high, PSP has gone through many problems in it's lifespan that affected it, not just custom firmware. You also can't assume every downloaded copy is a copy that would have been sold. But it would have been higher for sure.

Are you people serious? There's only been one game in the US to sell more then 200k first week on the PSP, and I doubt it will do it again. I predict 120k first week.

I can't wait for this game. I would pay hundreds for it. :)

200k should be easy. When I went to gamestop, there were 3 people inhead of me and they all preordered it, and so did I! Go midnight launch? :P

I think about 150k sounds about right.

We are talking about the PSP after all, it doesn't exactly move tons of software.

180k-250k

I would be amazed if it got too much over 200k considering anyone who cared about the game just downloaded the Japanese version. Then there will be those that download the American version. Software sales have been down all across the board so getting over 100k is even a challenge for many games.

Yes it would without hackers.

First game our Wal-Mart might carry for the PSP outside of Wolverine and MLB the Show 09 for PSP?

Not to mention the Final Fantasy name? I'm thinking 200k easily, yeah.



It's just that simple.

Wow, some people are way overshooting this. It may get 150k first week. I really doubt that though. 80-100k first week seems about right.
